Operation
The computer connected to the computer module (
DP-Vision-CPU
) can be operated at
the remote console of the user module as well as at the local console of the computer
module.
After their initiation, both consoles are enabled to operate the computer.
Concurrent operation of the
KVM extender
If a user carries out a keyboard or a mouse input, the KVM extender automatically
locks the input devices of the concurrent console. The lock is lifted if no inputs are
made at the active console during the adjusted timing of the automatic input lock
(default: 1 second).
After the automatic input lock has been lifted, both consoles are again able to oper-
ate the computer.
As an alternative to operate the computer concurrently via consoles, the exclusive
operation (see page 20) can be activated.

consoles are again able to operate the KVM extender.

LEDs are blinking alter-
nately at the keyboard of the locked console.

tion of the KVM extender.
